Question

When I provision a table with sync framework I use the DbSyncScopDescription object to add tables to the scope. Now after shutting down the program I want to retrieve my DbSyncScopeDescription objects from the database to be loaded in the following:

private static Dictionary<string,DbSyncScopeDescription> scopes { get; set; }

I want to call a load() method that will fill the dictionary when I start-up the program to know what a scopes are available (the easy part) and retrieve the scope description objects to control the scope (the hard part form me).

I figured that I can use the scope_info table in the database to get the name of the scopes back but I do not know what to do after that.

Answer 1

When you get the scope names, you loop thru the list of scopes and call GetDescriptionForScope for each scope name
